Community members are invited to participate in a National Civility Month Social Media Campaign throughout August, the Virgin Islands Justice Initiative, in partnership with the Governor’s Millennial Council, announced.

This campaign will feature various content designed to raise awareness about the importance of civility, according to the press release.

Spotlighting the three pillars of civility: Respect, Empathy, and Open Communication, the VI Justice Initiative will explore how these principles can be cultivated daily through a series of social media posts, the press release stated.

The community is encouraged to engage social media prompts on Facebook and Instagram to amplify voices within the community, share insight and promote civility within the Virgin Islands, the release stated.

Throughout the campaign, the VI Justice Initiative will collaborate with community leaders and local influencers to inspire meaningful conversations about civility. Virgin Islanders are invited to join the initiative on this journey by sharing personal experiences. Towards the end of the month, the campaign will address the importance of conflict resolution and community building, drawing on local wisdom and cultural celebrations embodying civility, it said.

Follow the prompts and engage with the posts throughout August for a chance to win one of three bracelets generously donated by Crucian Gold, it said.
